Yay! April! Spring is trying really hard to be here and I am so, so glad. I’m not as thrilled that I’ve already managed to acquire a sunburn but if it means not freezing, I’ll slap on the aloe and keep on going. Speaking of going…how about I go ahead and give you this week’s recipe?<\/p>\n

Orange-Apricot Pork Chops:<\/u>
\n
\n<\/u>
\nIngredients:<\/u>
\n6 pork chops
\n1 cup apricot jam
\n3 Tablespoons brown sugar
\n1 teaspoon kosher salt
\n1\/2 teaspoon pepper
\n1\/2 teaspoon cinnamon
\n1\/4 teaspoon ginger
\n1\/4 teaspoon cloves
\n1 (11-ounce) can mandarin oranges (and juice!)<\/p>\n

Directions:\u00a0<\/u><\/p>\n

Use a 4-6 quart crockpot. Put pork chops into your crockpot. In a small bowl, combine jam, brown sugar, and spices. Spoon over pork chops. Add the entire can of mandarin oranges evenly over the top.<\/p>\n

Cover and cook on low for about 8 hours, or on high for about 4.<\/p>\n

Serve with rice to soak up the yummy juice.<\/p>\n
